Official HB Good Beer Thread


Recommended Posts

@ Po Belini, if you like shocktop or blue moon, I suggest Hoegaarden...its tasty.

 

Where can I find this beer? Do they sell it in Nebraska?

Im not sure if the sell it in Nebraska...they sure as hell sell it in Connecticut!

They do. Check HyVee (sometimes), N Street (usually) and the Still (always).

Don't know why I haven't looked at this thread yet, but anyways I went to Grandmothers the other night with the girlfriend to have some nachos and a beer. Was feeling like something different so I asked what they had on tap and the waiter mentioned Schilling Bridge which I had never heard of before, apparently it's brewed in Pawnee City. I'm guessing the kind that I had was Lemon Lime Lager. It was perfect! This stuff is what any lime flavored beer should be like, doesn't have that pine-sol taste like bud light lime. Pretty sweet with excellent flavor and a smooth finish no bitterness whatsoever. It was dark in there but it looked almost like a blond wheat beer with the slight cloudiness too it. I think the best part was when I burped afterward and it tasted like lemon/lime/orange (that citrus taste they have in common).

 

I would highly recommend this beer if you're looking for a change up for the end of summer and a really refreshing beer. Could of drank 6 or 8 glasses without batting an eye but I had to drive. GF even loved it and she's pretty picky about beer, usually doesn't like my Guinness or wheat beers.

More good options:

 

Moose Drool Brown Ale. Big Sky Brewing. (Sort of like Third Stone Brown. Mellow brown ale with sort of a graham cracker taste.)

Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout. North Coast Brewing (Fairly intense. Not for beginners.) Note that EVERY beer I have ever had from North Coast has been outstanding.

Claymore Scotch Ale. Great Divide Brewery. (Easily in my top ten. Thick consistency . . . but more sweet than bitter.)

Alright . . . here is the most intense beer I have ever had. In fact, it's a bit too much for me but my fiance loves it. Huge bourbon flavors . . . one bottle has more flavor than a couple cases of your average beer.

 

Bourbon County Stout. Goose Island. Crazy stuff. If you are someone who thinks Guinness is a little on the wild side, don't go near this one.

My personal favorite is their porter, the Edmund Fitzgerald. It's so thick, you could cut it with a knife.

Unfortunately Great Lakes beer is tough to find outside of the Ohio/S Michigan/W Pennsylvania area, so the next time you're in Ohio (see Oct 2012) seek some out. It's life changing!

Great thread.

 

To the Blue Moon/Shock Top drinkers: Hoegaarden is a great choice, as is Leffe, Wittekerke (in a light blue can), and Duvel (Awesome stuff, 8.5% alc)

 

Are there any Chimay fans out there?

 

How about Fin du Monde from Unibroue? One of my favorites.

 

Lastly, if I'm cuttin the grass on a hot day, it's got to be Bud concrete.
